ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY

We would like, in this trip
of ours among the energies, to give emphasis to a particular
form of energy that, beginning from the 18th century, up to
our days, it has changed without any doubt the evolution of
our society, electromagnetic energy.
The origin of this knowledge makes him go up again to a Scottish
physicist James Clark Maxwell (1831 - 1879) that it
analytically foretold the existence of it also founding on
the studies of Faraday (1791 - 1867). It was then the German
physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857 - 1894) that with his
experiments of interference it tried the existence of it
beyond every reasonable doubt.
And it is important to know that these experiments were
conducted in the portion of the electro-magnetic spectrum
related to the radio waves: this fact, thanks to the
undisputed genius of Gugliemo Marconi, said beginning to the
development of the radio communications.
Returning to the experiments of Hertz, they were put in
evidence some properties of the radio waves as the
reflection, refraction and polarization analogous to those
revealed by light.
Concluded an amazing fact: the light is nothing more than an
electromagnetic wave.

We conclude this
brief trip among electro-magnetic waves with a normative
picture on the exposures of the human body to the
electromagnetic fields, in use in the different countries of
the world. |
